TYSHON LAWRENCE

With a global reach of over 20 million across all social media platforms our cover model, Tyshon Lawrence does it all: fashion, podcasting, comedy — he is the ultimate entertainer, constantly pushing boundaries and setting new norms.

Tyshon stands out from the pack while coupling his bold personality to his liberated sense of style. In addition to comedy and fashion, Tyshon embraces authenticity as an LGBTQ+ influencer, positively impacting social media and his broader communities.

Tyshon has worked with some of the biggest brands in the world, including Savage X Fenty, Michael Kors, YSL, and more. With his electric personality and contagious energy, he has turned his passion into his purpose (while loving every step along the way!)

Tyshon uses his robust platform to vocalize taking care of your mental health daily. Many people use social media to escape from the real world, but he advocates for taking everything you see with a grain of salt – you never know what someone is going through behind closed doors.

Born in North Carolina, Tyshon always knew from a young age that he meant to be doing something bold with his life; before hitting the ground running in the social media space, Tyshon worked three jobs at a time as a certified CNA Nurse. Even then, he used his infectious energy to help brighten the day of patients.

ANGELA DAVIS Angela Yvonne Davis (born January 26, 1944, in Birmingham, Alabama) is an American political activist, philosopher, academic, and author. She is a professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Ideologically a Marxist and feminist, Davis was a longtime member of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) and a founding member of the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism (CCDS). She is the author of more than ten books on class, gender, race, and the US prison system.

Born to an African-American family in Birmingham, Alabama, Davis studied French at Brandeis University and philosophy at the University of Frankfurt in West Germany. Studying under the philosopher Herbert Marcuse, an adherent of the Frankfurt School, Davis became increasingly engaged in far-left politics. Returning to the United States, she studied at the University of California, San Diego, before moving to East Germany, where she completed a doctorate at the Humboldt University of Berlin.

After returning to the United States, she joined the Communist Party and became involved in numerous causes, including the second-wave feminist movement and the campaign against the Vietnam War. In 1969, she was hired as an acting assistant professor of philosophy at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). UCLA’s governing Board of Regents soon fired her due to her Communist Party membership; after a court ruled the firing illegal, the university fired her again, this time for her use of inflammatory language.

In 1970, guns belonging to Davis were used in an armed takeover of a courtroom in Marin County, California, where four people were killed. Prosecuted for three capital felonies, including conspiracy to murder, she was held in jail for over a year before being acquitted of all charges in 1972. She visited Eastern Bloc countries in the 1970s and, during the 1980s, was twice the Communist Party’s candidate for vice president; at the time, she also held the position of professor of ethnic studies at San Francisco State University. Much of her work focused on the abolition of prisons, and in 1997, she co-founded Critical Resistance, an organization working to abolish the prison–industrial complex. In 1991, amid the dissolution of the Soviet Union, she was part of a faction in the Communist Party that broke away to establish the CCDS. Also, in 1991, she joined the feminist studies department at the University of California, Santa Cruz, where she became department director before retiring in 2008. Since then, she has continued to write and remained active in movements such as Occupy and the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions campaign.

Davis has received various awards, including the Soviet Union’s Lenin Peace Prize.

Accused of supporting political violence, she has sustained criticism from the highest levels of the US government. She has also been criticized for supporting the Soviet Union and its satellites. Davis has been inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame. In 2020, she was listed as the 1971 “Woman of the Year” in Time magazine’s “100 Women of the Year” edition, which selected iconic women over the 100 years since women’s suffrage in the United States of America from 1920. In 2020, she was included on Time’s list of the 100 most influential people in the world.

Dear

Q

DAVID

I am in this beautiful relationship with a really great guy, and since the beginning, I felt like we really found each other, you know? There is one thing, though, that is starting to get to me, and that is his past. It seems that no matter what, he has already done it with past boyfriends or sex partners.

I can’t help but think that I just don’t measure up to the apparently wild and crazy life he had before me. Don’t get me wrong, we have great sex, and our connection is real, but this is nagging at me. I haven’t told him about my feelings yet, and I want to try to move past this without ever letting him now that I am a little self-conscious. How do I do that?

A

When you fall in love, one of the ‘perks’ and part of the appeal is that you kind of start fresh with a new person. It’s a wonderful and passionate part of the relationship where you feel like you’re alone in the world– but then the rest of the world and reality sets in. It seems like you are pretty open with each other, which has led to him (and you?) disclosing details of past relationships.

As long as it is not used as a weapon, this can be a really great thing, and even deepen the connection between two people, or be the catalyst for even greater shared moments – except when that makes someone feel inadequate like you are feeling now. You can almost feel like you are left out of your own relationship because the person you love was (also) happy with someone before you.

The thing is, there is no allocation of happy, so even though your boyfriend was happy before you, that doesn’t impede on your present happiness. In fact, past experiences are probably the reason why he is with you now. So, take a second to wrap your head around that.

He chose you. Keep the honesty and openness in your relationship and share with him how you feel about this.

He loves you, and he will understand why this is bothering, and if he’s a superstar, he will even give you the reassurance that you are subconsciously looking for.

DAVID
